Question:
Trying to cheat an upgrade with Verizon?
Someone you wish you knew...

OK, I am one of the millions of people wanting try to get the iPhone on Verizon Wireless. I have updated my mom on my plan to cheat and upgrade for me. I just upgraded to a Droid 2 in August, and don't have an upgrade until next April. So instead of paying the $599, I want to add a line so I can get it for $199, assuming that I get the phone at upgrade price when I add a line. So, ...

1. Will my payment change at all? I got the best data plan when I upgraded to my droid 2. We currently have 3 lines and I don't know if I have a family plan or anything, but I do have unlimited texts and 1400 minutes shared between our 3 lines. My mom said she pays about $45/month for my line.

2. I also had a question about the 3g iPad. I am currently writing this on an iPad and have fallen in love with it! If I were to buy an iPad, 3g on Verizon, would I have to carry that stupid box mi-fi thing in my pocket at all times? If not, why would I buy that? And does anyone know how much it is a month?

Thanks in advance!

If you add a line, you will have to add an additional data plan. Oh, btw, don't even think of trying to sell the droid. At least not for use on Verizon. Unless you replace it on that line with another Verion phone, it's ESN is not clean.



You must carry the mifi in order to use Verizon 3g on an iPad. The plans are $20/month for 1gb, $35 for 3gb and $50 for 5gb. The plans are all month to month.



You're wasting your money with the iPhone. What are you going to do in June if there's a new iPhone? How about the following June when the next major iPhone upgrade is expected?



The point is that there will always be a better, badder phone coming out. It's idiotic to be a lemming with all of them.

1) If you add a line, you'll pay at least $40 a month more, PLUS the $199



THEN you STILL pay for your existing Droid 2, as you're stuck on it for another 20 months or so.



2) You can't buy 3G iPad on Verizon. You have to buy a WiFi iPad with a MiFi 3G hotspot. Presumably later in the year there will be a CDMA 3G version of iPad, but not yet.

think ofyou've have been given to rfile each and all the circumstances, date and time that this happens for a minimum of 30 days. touch customer service. The project looks like a cellular telephone concern. We had an comparable subject with AT&T. AFter many months of complaining they upgraded our telephones (our determination of cell) with the settlement that if the telephones artwork the equivalent, too risky, too unhappy. yet they did have us rfile all problems and while it got here approximately. additionally they provided and issued credit for each and each physique of those circumstances. you have a authorized binding settlement. the two pay the launch fee or wait it out. ALl cellular telephones artwork off the equivalent tower interior the States so changing vendors will do you no only good. You the two are transforming into interferance from something in residing house or it is your telephones. As for needing you cellular, please, get a apartment cellular. they are as decrease priced as $20/month. additionally, once you're no longer able to discover the money for, the federal government will positioned a phpone in for you and pay the bill. you won't be able to make long distance calls although can get incoming calls and 911 calls outgoing.
